Tasting notes
Pazo de Senorans is always a candidate for Albarino of the vintage. The grapes are sourced from the lowest-yielding, oldest vines in Rias Baixas. The wine is tank-fermented in small vats, and aged on fine lees with batonnage. Light gold-colored, it offers up a fragrant aromatic array of spring flowers, peach, citrus, and lemon meringue. Crisp, focused, and intensely flavored, it should be consumed now and over the next 3 years. Importer: Eric Solomon, European Cellars, Charlotte, NC; tel. (704) 358-1565

Hazy yellow. Spicy tangerine and pear scents are complicated by honeysuckle, quinine and ginger. Zesty citrus and green apple flavors are refreshing, biting and focused. This dry, stony, very persistent albarino is uncompromising in structure but packed with fruit too.
